I was just with goats online and I am getting those damn Connection to SWG lost! messages. So he ttold me to turn of the firewall I had on. So I used the windows help guide, and according to that, I had the firewall off, but if I go on GameSpy, it says I am behind a firewall. So, I need to know how to turn it off. And I am using a Linksys router. Please help!

Just see what port SWG uses to acsess and recieve from the interent and enable that port on your router.

How do I do that Des? Can you give me like a mini walkthrough? I would really appreciate it because if it works, I would be playing SWG alot more often than I do now.

evan you have to know your Ip to get the the barricade provider after that its easy just go to tools ports and then type what they tell you. Or you could just take the wire for your pc that goes into the router and connect it directly to your modem! It's hard to explain evan you need to be like a master at this
